In one of the videos I mentioned, they talked about that. Also walking in heels causes more hip sway. I think it has to do with shortening the calf muscle. It forces you to raise the hip as you bring your leg forward.

I never tried it because I am just under 6 feet tall. Heels would put me at 6'2" or 3". Nope, not doing that.

Today marks 38 years of sobriety for me. Don't be afraid to take charge of your life if you have lost control.

Have you ever tried hip padding?

I just do not want to have fake breasts or body parts, so I have resisted "faking" my appearance.  I admit to trying those "chicken cutlets" to "enhance" the appearance of my breasts but after some satisfaction with noticing them, I decided to not actually use them and appreciate what I have naturally.  I will however use some bras that do seem to emphasize the breasts a bit more than others, but I do not consider that to be fakey, as none of the bras have any padding except for a very thin layer perhaps between the inner and outer cup materials.

I want to make it clear that if a woman does breast augmentation surgery, that is her decision and I am not saying anything bad about that.  I am only talking about me using a pad to make the breasts look bigger, that seems unnatural.

I have not been happy with the lack of lower curve development.  I am tempted to try the hip pads to see what a double digit difference between the smaller waist and larger hip size would have on my appearance.  But I doubt again that I would use those pads for everyday living, seems fakey.

So do you use hip pads?  What have your results been by using them? 

I went out with my sweetie last night.  She got prime rib and I got baby back BBQ ribs. After stopping to get a few things at the market, later at her house she provided a nice dessert.

On certain floor types the sound of high heels is quite distinctive.

I purposely take shorter strides.  This makes me think it is taking me longer to walk because it does.  My point is that I notice this no matter what, so at the same time I am walking shorter strides, I must not think that I am.  Just do it in other words.
